Abstract

The temperature dependences of the electric field gradient (EFG) at111Cd probes in nickel-indium and indium-tellurium intermetallic compounds have been studied by means of the time differential perturbed angular correlation of gamma rays (TDPAC). The room temperature interaction frequencies (e 2 Qq/h) in each case were determined as In2Te5 (136 MHz), Ni3In (13.8 MHz), NiIn (252 and 337 MHz) (two sites), and Ni2In3 (162 and 266 MHz) (two sites). The TDPAC pattern of111Cd in NiIn did not agree with the previous assignment of the crystal structure. A general discussion of the results related to other temperature dependence studies of the EFG is presented and a general trend is discerned.
